This collection features five peer-reviewed literature reviews on
mycotoxin control in agriculture. The first chapter reviews
advances in post-harvest detection and control of fungal
contaminants in cereals. It examines abiotic factors affecting
spoilage, methods for early detection of contamination and the
range control measures for preventing toxin growth. The second
chapter focuses on post-harvest storage and handling practices of
barley grain and how these methods can be used to mitigate
mycotoxin issues. The chapter also reviews the various mycotoxins
and fungi that are associated with barley. The third chapter
considers the current strategies available to prevent mycotoxin
contamination in groundnut cultivation, focussing on peanuts. It
also covers models that predict contamination, as well as the
challenges associated with research and quantification of
aflatoxin. The fourth chapter presents an overview of the current
understanding of mycotoxin contamination of cocoa. The chapter
summarises the various methods available to aid detection of
mycotoxins and control further contamination. The final chapter
addresses the critical safety issue of mycotoxin contamination of
food waste planned for re-use. It reviews factors affecting
mycotoxin growth and the particular problem of masked mycotoxins.
